Max and the Midknights go into hiding, as King Gastley's guards scour the city looking for them. When guards almost spot Uncle Budrick, Mumblin turns Uncle Budrick into a goose as a disguise. It works, but unfortunately Mumblin can't figure out how to turn Uncle Budrick back into his human form, so he's stuck as a goose. Also, Kevyn discovers a prophecy that appears to be about Max and Max learns that her dagger actually belonged to King Conrad and, due to some kind of enchantment, it glows and points the way toward King Conrad's whereabouts. Max, realizing the fate of Byjovia hangs in the balance, decides that it's up to her and the others to find King Conrad and restore him to the throne. Thus, Max and the team devise a plan to escape from Byjovia without being captured. As they make their harrowing escape, they face off with the tentacle beast and, to everyone's surprise, Millie learns that she has magical powers. Ultimately, thanks to Millie, they make it out of Byjovia to begin their quest!
